Why updater
We move people with end-to-end solutions
Updater is an invite-only moving app that is powered by cutting-edge technology.
What is Updater?
Updater is a tool designed to simplify the moving experience – from booking movers, to forwarding your mail, to connecting internet, utilities, and more. It’s free and easy to use – helping you save time and money.
How do I sign up for an Updater account?
Currently, Updater access is invite-only, sent by someone involved in your move – like a real estate agent, an apartment property manager, a loan officer, or a moving company. If you received an invite, simply click the link in your email or enter your email to claim your free Updater account. If you don’t have an invitation, you can ask your real estate agent or property manager if they use Updater or use some of our publicly available free tools.
Who uses Updater?
Updater helps more than 25% of US household moves, including both buyers and renters. So if you’re moving, ask your real estate agent or property management company for an invitation. If you don’t have an invitation, you can still use our free moving tools.
If your business works with people who are moving, you can learn more about offering Updater’s moving concierge to your customers. We offer specific solutions for real estate brokerages and agents, property management companies, and more.
What’s the real benefit of an Updater account?
Think about the number of things that you need to do when you move. Updater helps you handle all of that in one place – saving you time. Need trustworthy movers? We can help. Need services like internet and electricity connected in your new place? We can help with that, too. We simplify the change-of-address process to inform your favorite businesses (e.g., magazines, loyalty programs, alumni associations, etc.). And we can help you save money, too, from professional home cleaning services to home goods.
